Voter turnout low but steady throughout Summit County according to Deputy Elections Director Kim Zurz. Zurz tells AkronNewsNow "We have about 28% Republicans, and 12% of the Democrats, that's what we're showing." She says the percentages were derived from a sampling at polling places and is not a complete picture of a voting trend.
Zurz says voter turnout was slightly higher in Cuyahoga Falls where an operating levy for Woodridge Schools is on the ballot.
Elsewhere turnout is light
The polls close at 7:30 tonight and Kim Zurz anticipates a late night before final election results are tallied due to the number of write-in candidates ballots that will have to be counted.
